Ended the day at 11% with 17hrs off the charger and only 2hr 22 minutes screen on time... On days where I really use my phone that's just not going to do.

I'm also realizing more and more just how gimmicky wireless charging is. It's not any more convenient and in many ways it's less so, like when my phone accidentally gets bumped and stops charging. It also means I can't charge and use my device in bed while I prepare to sleep. I'm only going to use my wireless charger at work from now on, where it is less important but will give me a bit of a bump. Basically all my previous thoughts on wireless charging have been confirmed. The biggest problem with wireless charging is it's not truly untethered charging, you're still stuck in one spot. When wireless charging means my device can charge in my pocket or in my hand then it's no longer a gimmick. Until then...

Yep. It's kind of pointless and frankly useless. If I can still got to go to the plug and have my phone in one place, what are we really accomplishing?

Yeah, 32gb here. No issues. Although I stream mostly everything. I have maybe 15-20 albums of music downloaded for when I don't have service. I also use Plex and sync 5-10 episodes of TV shows at a time. Currently have 6 episodes of Vikings and still have 10gb of storage left...

With all of the cloud storage availability these days, 32gb should be more than enough for anyone willing to get with the times.

crap!....just lost an hours worth of a review I was typing on the Note 5 after miss hitting a key or a button on my mouse...DANG it !

Anyways the phone is absolutely the best phone Samsung has ever made and the best one I've ever owned. NO LAG whatsoever!

Just don't drop it ! Much more fragile than the earlier plastic phones. The magnesium frame will scuff and dent very easily from just a 2 foot drop. Also the gorrilla glass on these things don't seem to be any tougher than earlier phones such as the galaxy S2 or the Note 3. My Note 5 just rubbed up against a plastic debit card holder in my back pocket and it lightly scratched the screen! So I STRONGLY suggest that anybody purchasing this phone should also immediately buy a case and screen protector. Don't do like me and wait for cheaper options LOL

Oh, I reached out to my credit union yesterday via their Facebook (Navy Federal) since they were the first CU to support Android Pay, and they let me know they're actively working with Samsung to get Samsung Pay
